Our bath repair service in NE62

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We’re frequently asked to fix a chipped rim or side and rusty patches near the plughole, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

What you will pay

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Landlords, agents and businesses in NE62

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need bath repair

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
